a i, THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1890. -October 9, 1590, ‘THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. —_————— AD extra session is sometimes a necessity to the dominant party, occasionally indispensable to the public, always welcome to portion at least of the people. When the first session of the Fifty-first Congress closed on the Ist in- stant the general opinion was that no extra Session would be called this year. Such astep is not without risk to the party taking it If it could be safeguarded in advance at all points the extra session would be an unqualified party advantage, but the action of such extra session cannot be forecast. Something unforeseen and perhaps unforeseeable may occur and mar ali the plans of the political organization whose hopes have been founded upon the issue of the session. Henco administrations have beeu chary of calling Congress together out of rogular session. Unquestionably, however, a large and influential clement of the admuinis- tration party wishes to have Congress mect this year eartier than the regular session for the purpose especially of passing the federal elections bill, To Tax Stan and the non-par- tisan portion of the public the greatest neces- sity of the situation is notso much an extra session for the passage of any particular bill asan entirely different apportionment of time devoted to congressional work in the two ses- sions. It has been long apparent that the short session is a serious disadvantage. No other leguslative body has such a thing as a bricf fixed term supplementing a long indefinite ses- sion. Any one of the propositions for change before the public is better than the existing arrangement, by which a Congress chosen in November | ssembles in regular session for the first time in the second December following. ‘The whole beautiful autumn scason is lost, the hot summer is often passed in legislative labors. Some plan for equalizing the sessions or pro- viding a continuous session with recesses and at the same time for sooner assembling after election should be adopted without further delay. This would be by far the wisest solu- tion of the question of extra sessions. — As Tur Sran said just before his arrival, the visit of the Count of Paris is in no sense offi- ¢ial, This republic, the friend of the republic of France, does not receive him asa claimant of the French throne. If there was a tinge of oficial recognition at New York or anything that meant more than a personal tribute of Americans to an ex-soldier of the Union army in the war for the Union 1t was unwarranted by anything inthe history of the country and presumably unwarranted by anything in the instructions of the government. aaa Governor Campbell of Ohio may lose the machine democrats of that state by his present course, but he can console himself with the thought that all the republican editors in the state are asserting on their editorial affidavits that he is an honest man, When a republican will say this of » democrat or vice versa in the state of Ohio, some violent moral convulsion must be occurring. Evidently the governor has acted like an upright man. a The Kansas City Sfar thus unfeelingly and unexpectedly thrusts itself into a matter which does not in any way concern it and which is cowardly in the extreme, seeing that Congress cannot kick, with Kilgore in Texas and the otber foot in the grave: The chief of police at Washington says he wants half a million dollars for police expenses next year. It is to be hoped that it will be many years before the country again sees another Congress like the present one, but there is nothing like being prepared for emer- gencies. $a The New York Sun persists in defending the trotting record of Axtell against that of Nelson, which is a half second shorter, because Nelson's record was made on the new kite shaped track. Would not the Sun be justitied in the same objections if Nelson had made his record on a “fast track” of the ordinary ellipti- cal patter A mile # amile and the horse that gets from one end of it to the other in the shortest time is the fastest horse, the Sun and old fogyism to the contrary nothwithstanding. — The congressional election in Randall's old district has divided the republican press of Philadelphia into three parts, like “all Gaul” in{Cwsar's time. The North American wants a republican candidate. The Press sees no use for one, yet opposes any republican support of Mr. Vaux. The Inquirer is prepared to ac- cept the venerable independent as a bourbon democrat, ascholar and gentleman and the less of two evils. —$—$— ‘The ezar of Russia shows himself, as usual, unprogresaive and not disposed to keep abreast of the times. The friends of one Baron Naldi, who had embezzeled two million rubles—no common thief, you will observe—have been persistent in their efforts to secure his pardon, but the czar is inflexible and will insist upon the full measure of the law. — + The electric companies are more active than ever in their endeavors to prevent the electro- cution of Jugigo, the New York murderer, and the court authorities are beginning to be con- vinced that electricity is as armless a fluid as mili. = The Savannah News has gone to the trouble to find out that in every other district in Maine except Mr. Reed's the state democrats made gains. The News may not have so intended it, bat this would scem to show how very, very popular Mr. Reed is. ——— The fact that the Obio campaign opened with a train robbery ean scarcely be accepted as circumstantial evidence that the railroads have refused to come down peaceably with the meedful. $$ —___ Revolutionary Buenos Ayres is an excellent place of residence at present if one has a large life and accident policy on himself. ——— Kemmler was Kemmlerized, but will Jugigo be jugigoed? The electric companies think now Dorerass & Bu. INTER-OCEAN BUILDING, 9TH ST. FRIDAY.
